    We’re not currently breaching PSR but we’re close to the limit. That means we don’t have to sell players to stay within the rules but, I guess, we do to buy new players.
    Eddie needs to evaluate Minteh asap - he could be our golden egg and solve the RW problem (with Jacob and Miggy backing up).

    Ideally we sell Miggy and a central midfielder then we can spend big on a couple of ‘starters’.

    That is my understanding also. We're not over the limit.

    We don't have to sell before the end of the month but the hacks as SSN etc have lumped us in with the others.


    I was of the belief that we have backroom staff who analyse all the metrics and data of each player to build a complete picture of every action and player output.

    There can not be any sets of metrics which show that Miggy is good enough to remain at the club next season.

    He had a brief patch of consistency, we all enjoyed it and rallied behind him. We all want the cheerful smiling lad to do well. However, he's 30 now and it's not gonna get any better.

    He has to go if the club are to show true ambition. I've seen many podcasts and articles saying 'It's time to be ruthless'.

    We absolutely need to see the back of Miggy & Wilson as a minimum and bring in genuine quality players who will be available and be major contributors.

    Yes - I think Everton and Forest are two who must sell so as not to be breaking the rules.

    Is Miggy 30? Hadn’t realized he was that old. We’ve all seen him play plenty and tbh, if we’d sold him during his goal scoring purple patch, I wouldn’t have minded.
    We’re past the stage where a big heart and a lot of effort on the pitch is enough.
